Mr. HansH (Ishq Mein Marjawan)
Drama Round

Huh! I took a deep breath and tried to smile.

"Auntie is sure, one day your memory will definitely return. Aunt pray for."

Hmm.. is inversely proportional to my expectations, Bi. I want real amnesia.

"Oh, so Cinderella Kak HansH is really back. That's great!"

Oh my God, what else is this?

I turned to the source of the voice behind me. Sheveni, HansH's first brother is standing behind me with his haughty face.

"Sheveni, don't do it" Aunt Heera said. "Alisah HansH's future wife. She'll be your sister-in-law. You have to respect him. Understood?"

Sheveni laughed. "Come on, Auntie, this middle-class girl doesn't deserve my sister. Don't expect me to take it. It never will. Don't dream."

Ughhhh! So arrogant. If there were no one here, I would have slapped you.

"Sister, watch your talk. If Brother HansH hears you, you'll get in trouble."

"really? You're defending him, Nandini? I'm not scared. Just call me Brother HansH."

"Enough, Sheveni! Go to your pavilion! Don't make a mess here."

"No, Auntie. You wrong. My home. This street girl* here's who should go."

Everyone is angry.

"You talk, Sheveni! Aunty never taught you to be rude! Hurry up and apologize to Alisah!"

Proudly, the woman left the kitchen and smiled wryly.

"I'm sorry, Sister Sheveni, yes. Please don't take heart" Nandini tried to persuade me and give understanding.

I honestly am not offended. I'm fine, because basically I know what Sheveni hates is Alisah. I wasn't. Not Zia.

But, for the sake of playing the role of Alisah, Zia had to pretend to be offended, sad, and crying, then left the kitchen, running to the pavilion with tears of sadness. Yep, I have to dramatize the atmosphere and make HansH pity me.

"Son...?"

"I'm fine, Auntie."

"Please don't cry, brother."

I just nodded, I shed tears and I left the place. "I need some time alone" I said before leaving. "Excuse me."

And now that I was waiting for HansH, without locking the pavilion door, I immediately went into the bathroom. I see, right, the way women hide sadness? But I will use this way to show sadness.

I'm sorry, My HansH. I didn't mean to play you with these tears. But these tears are necessary so that you scold your brash sister. He must be taught a lesson, so that he knows that he can't kick me out of this house.

"These are...."

A banggo!

Hansh's coming. From his voice I knew he was worried about me.

"The story," he called again, he was already at my bathroom door and knocked on it several times. "You're inside?"

Crying, I listened to her my sobbing voice.

"Darling, open the door. Please don't cry."

"I need some alone time. Please leave me."

"No. I'm not gonna leave you alone. Open the door."

Oh, poor guy. You're caught between your lover's love and your own sister's hatred.

"The story... please...?"

All right, I'll see you.

Chequek!

I'm shaking. I released myself from his arms and wiped away the tears as I walked to the bed. I took my handbag and put it on my shoulder.

"Alisah, where are you going?"

"Go. I can't stay here."

"No. You can't go."

Well, it's just like I wanted. HansH clutched my hand firmly to hold me back.

"I'm sorry. But I have to go."

"Alisha. I beg you, don't you?"

"Let go of my hand" I asked. "please understand?"

"will not. Never will, Alisah." HansH hugged me and grabbed my body firmly. "You can't leave me again. I won't let it. Your place is here, Alisah. Please, just forget Sheveni's words."

"It's not that easy, My HansH. His words hurt me. He even called me jalan*. What wrong? Why does he hate me? Is it because I'm not a classy girl like her? Am I too bad for you? Then why do you love me? I don't deserve you, do I? Just leave me. I don't deserve. I'm just a poor girl. I don't deserve to be here. I just want to go, My HansH. I don't want to be with you just to be insulted by your sister. I don't want to. I can't be demeaned like this. Please, let me go."

HansH said nothing. Instead, he grabbed me tighter and tighter, as if my bones were going to crumble.

"When are you going to hug me? Why don't you answer all my questions?"

HansH shook his head, he released a hug and stared fixedly at my eyes. "Sit down," she asked.

I comply. I sat on the edge of the bed and HansH sat on his knees before me.

"Listen to me, Alisah. It doesn't matter what Sheveni tells you, what matters to me is everything. You're not that bad and I trust you so much. Please don't take heart. Would help?"

I shook my head in wonder. "What does that mean? Why are you talking about trust?"

She shook her head. There was clearly confusion in his eyes. There must be something, I thought. Butwhat?

"Not to be discussed."

"Is there something you're covering up?"

"No. There aren't. Okay?"

"You lied."

"These are...."

"Say!"

"Nothing's wrong."

"I can't believe it. You must be hiding something. Tell me."

"Shhh.. listen to me. The past is buried with your memory. So please, no need to dig. Whatever bad things happened in the past, I don't believe it. I just believe in you. Youunderstand? Please don't be yanked again, please?"

All right, the point is there's something that's happened in the past. Bad thing, maybe some kind of vile slander against Alisah until HansH does not believe it. Or, it could be the fact that Alisah is that bad. But whatever it is, it's none of my business. The important thing is that HansH believes and loves Alisah very much, which I now play. He loves me, that's enough. Alisah's past is none of my business.

"That's...?"

Oh that look. What a pity for him, poor man. He looked at me with a glare.

"I'm sure there must be something bad going on. But whatever it is, I won't find out, as you asked. On one condition, you trust me completely. There is no doubt."

He's nodding. "I believe. I'll always believe you."

"God! You're so cunning, Alisah! I'm sure you're just pretending to forget memories so you can keep deceiving my brother. Basic lady street*!"

Growled. HansH stood up, he walked up to his first sister and immediately slapped into Sheveni's face, which I knew from when it was in the pavilion I was occupying.

Angry and unable to accept being slapped by her brother, Sheveni stares at HansH sharply. "For her, are you willing to hurt me? You're really outrageous!" his roar. While crying, Sheveni ran and HansH immediately regretted his actions.

My God, am I guilty of dramatizing things? But I'm not the Alisah that's the reason for this fight....
